Isn't Boris also backing another Conservative party member for leadership instead of taking responsibility and doing it himself? Farage notwithstanding, it almost seems like nobody wants to actually take responsibility for this mess we're in
Boris should by rights be running for the Tory leadership, particularly given his prominent public image and his leadership of the Tory-based Leave Campaign.
I can however kind of understand him not running as he is divisive and may not serve the party well when it comes to the next general election.
But, I think we deserve to have a Leave campaigner in the office at least in order to negotiate our deal for leaving the EU.
Although he was remain I do believe that Cameron would have been capable of leading negotiations in our interest. And I don't really have that trust in the current leadership frontrunners.
